It almost sounds like the leave the episode running while they go to ad breaks...
And the spare Starscreams are clone bodies, made from Starscream dividing his power (and thus personality traits). I think thats as vague as I can be without spoiling anything.
It's another case of Autobots being rather daft and not realising the different paint schemes on each clone.
Prowl with the armour was awesome though, hope they retool and re-release him soon.
Ooops, totally forgot. (because I saw them all on youtube)Quote:

I love Prowl in this series. All the characters are great, really. And I'm more than willing to get up at 7:20am each morning quickly rush to the loo and then the bathroom to brush my teeth and then plonk down on the couch with my eyes glued to the tellie for the next 30 mins. The only thing that really annoys me are those STUPID Hog's Breath ads! They' so pointless! It's instantly become my most hated ad. I mean the kiddies are watching that too you know and they have to sit through that rubbish?! Pathetic! Trully pathetic!
Hosgtar!!! i highly reccomend getting season 1 dvd mine just arrived from amazon which im currently watching:D
*shudders* I so want to kick the janglies of whoever made that primus-forsaken ad. (-_-) But yeah, these eps are horrifically butchered something chronic. If I hadn't seen these eps before I think they'd be really confusing to watch. I really hate how they cut to an ad break when a character is midway through a sentence or even midway through a word! The person who cuts/edits these eps also deserves a good janglies-kicking.

Today's episode with it's introduction of some new (and yet familiar) characters was barely understandable through the bloody mess that was the editing. Earth...ad...Cybertron (I think)... ad... Earth... asteroid?... What the? The clever drama in the character reveals was completely lost in the machete job.
Heheh, yeah... it reminds me of that scene from Wayne's World 2 where they're going through that drive-thru. :p
"I'd like 'rullers, 'ugar, 'ucks and a Mikita 'cup... And then I think I would like a large...... with 'eam. And could I please have 'elly donut and.....raspberry and a 'nge rink?"
"What?"
"I'm sorry. And 'eaker 'oken."
"Let me recap the order. A cruller, two sugar pucks, a large coffee with cream, a raspberry jelly doughnut, orange drink, a box of five-holes."
"...yeah..."
"Thank you, drive around please."
:p
..until you realise it's actually just two cheerleaders who've been digitally "cloned." And it doesn't compensate for the tricking try-hard in the pig-suit and the fact that it's an utterly crap ad. From a marketing POV it's nothing more than a feeble attempt to grab people's attention and say the product name repeatedly... it tells you next to nothing about the actual product. *sigh* At least the 'O Fortuna' parody Carlton Draught ad was highly amusing even though it was a complete marketing failure.Quote:

That Carlton ad was a failure?!? Dammit, it was brilliant though. No accounting for taste I guess
The Carlton ad failed because while a lot of people found it witty and entertaining, a lot of people couldn't remember exactly which brand of beer it was advertising. So it was a big bloody expensive ad that failed to promote the product. From an entertainment POV it's great, but from a marketing POV it was a dismal failure. Later versions of the ad had the Carlton Draught logo and name appear at the very end of the ad where they're all holding their beer up... but yeah... the ad failed to promote the brand name.
The Hogstar ad is way too try-hard though IMO and ends up just being annoying to me. But as far as its marketing effectiveness, I really don't know - I don't think anyone will know until after the campaign has run its course and market research gathers data to see how well it performed. I personally don't care... either way I still hate the ad with a passion and if anything it's made be resent Hog's Breath.
